"Top Ten Worst Bands Of All Time" by Yeasayer

Brooklyn's unfaultably earnest Yeasayer – who are rereleasing their awesome album All Hour Cymbals from last year, probably because nowhere near enough people realised it was out already – took a few minutes out to cuss some bands for us. Can't really fuck with any of their irony-busting choices. They're on mini-tour at the moment, so if you didn't get round to seeing them last year, get down to the ICA on Wednesday. Or see them in Glasgow or Manchester later in the week, if you live there. The 'Wait For The Summer' single is out on 17th March, and the pretty cool video is above. Yes! Yes! It is! On with the hate:

On the Yeasayer list I have to agree, to some extent, with your comment. Putting AC/DC, Van Halen and KISS in a worst bands of all time list does suggest a certain kind of mindset - one with a sense of humour bypass perhaps.
